Hosted by the Coalition for Global Prosperity and Conservatives in Foreign Policy

The world has become more dangerous, with the existing Western-led international order under significant strain. Compounding these challenges is the rise of an “axis of autocracies” where bad actors seek to undermine the rules-based order. ​This panel will explore how the UK can reassert itself as a global power and tackle the rising influence and impact of those nations looking to undermine our security and prosperity.​
